The one thing I can comfortably conclude after watching these many episodes.. Is that the main lead isn't in control of her household.. There have been SO many crazy things happen to her kids.. No real resolutions..I'd have had police involved if I found my daughter in a grave and etc...the kids seem to be flags in the wind
Sheryl is even worse of a babysitter now, due to Leland’s influence.
Another good outing with just the right amount of holiday creepiness. And David goes to confession TWICE in four days after apparently bedding the lovely Renee between episodes, which reminded me of the old joke with the "I'm telling everyone!" punchline.
Another enjoyable episode. This is turning out to be a really strong first season. I immediately recognized Jonathan Coulton as the songwriter and singer for “Pudsy’s Christmas.” Now if only I could get that tune out of my head...
annnd wow. Evil seals it's dominance over the utterly laughable Prodigal Son which actually had a great winter finale but Evil's winter finale manages to surpass it even with dumb characters like Ben Shakir's scoffing at the well known dancing epidemic. Not only is that one of the most well known examples of mass hysteria it's something a skeptic like him should be very comfortable with he should know it as much as he knows all about how mold contamination can change behaviour. Also Kristen finds her kids singing the creepy song and tries to get them to sing a different song and the one she picks off the top of her head is Good King Wenceslas? Really? For the random girls at the school she picked Jingle Bells. She could have picked Deck the Halls or We Wish You a Merry Christmas or any number of Christmas songs that kids might enjoy.
Still in spite of those two very very stupid moments there's a lot that goes here that works so well. Most of that goes to the choral girls. Their harmonizing was pitch perfect not too enthusiastic and not too apathetic. Just enough to disturb. Between the last episode and this episode it's possibly becoming clear they're going to lean too much on Michael Emerson. I mean he's a great actor to lean on but I had hoped for more of this mythology of The Sixty. I was expecting other demonic influences to be responsible for the last two events and the fact that he's was responsible kinda makes me feel like they're pulling another Lost where he went from a one time bit character to the most important character in the show strictly on the strength of how great an actor he is and how much the audience loved him.
So here's the spoiler question: the voice on the tape in the teenage range was Leland right? The girls never met or barely met Leland. Does this mean that if they hear his voice again that they'll recognize him as the voice from the Melindaz Challenge video?
It's a small thing but the fact that the girls don't eat salads and just subsist on fries was kinda compelling the myth of women who don't eat and are perennially on diets is pernicious it's always good to see that taken down.
How many times I've woken with a nagging song or tune inside my head that I keep repeating uncontrollably all day long until I finally take action to stop humming or whistling it. Sometimes it's really unsettling. I'll hang on to my prayers :pray:
I don't think I like this show anymore...bad Grandma, self-harm that isn't mitigating unresolved emotional pain-load, and demonic possession reaching a tipping point on several fronts...I feel very uncomfortable.
Kind of reminds me of an issue I've had where I'd stop watching a TV Show or movie altogether if a woman gets hurt in a violent sort of way. It's not exactly the same but the feeling of the trigger is.
Hopefully the daughter will figure out what mamas doing and the kids will not be corrupted also.
Well, that was creepy, a whole lot of creepy. But a little on the dumb, ridiculous side of things. The conclusion to the case was, anyway. Everything else was good. As for the "cliffhanger" ending, it's obvious he'll pull through, or at least long enough to be in the next episode. But I doubt he'll end up dying in the end.
Well, grandma is totally corrupted.

I'll never get that melody out of my head. Mission accomplished.
